Published: June 11, 2020, 9 p.m.

b'Mat, Jon, and Jaana discuss reflection and meta programming. How do other languages use reflection, and how does that differ from Go\\u2019s approach? What libraries are using reflection well? What are some examples of bad times to use reflect? What alternative approaches exist? And what are those weird struct tags I keep seeing in Go code?'
